Saturday, Sept. 2. 
Light and fluky southerly airs prevailed in the second 
Y. R. A. open race of the Duxbury Y. C., sailed on Sat- 
urday, Sept. 2. It was so light that the 22-footers could 
not get over from Plymouth. There was a mixup among 
the 18-footers at the start, out of which Menace was first 
to get away with Dorchen and' Again following. Menace 
led on the short leg to the first mark, but was soon passed 
by Dorchen, which kept the lead to the finish. In the 
Cape cats Hustler got the start and led until the first 
round had been completed, when Marvel took the lead 
and finished first, losing to Hustler on corrected time. 
Eclipse won easily in the fir,st handicap class. Nautilus 
finished first in the second handicap class, but lost to 
Pokonoket on corrected time. The summary : 
Class I, 18-footers.

Edgcwood Y. C. 
Open Regatta, Narragansett Bay, Sept. 2. 
The last regatta of the season for the Edgewood Y. C. 
an open event, was sailed Sept. 2. There was a good sized 
entry list, but owing to light winds the racing was slow, 
and some of the boats did not finish until long after dark. 
In the evening a smoker was held at the club house, at 
which a good entertainment consisting principally of box- 
ing bouts and wrestling amused a large crowd. On the 
whole the afternoon and evening furnished a successful 
wind-up to the racing season. 
A gqod _S. wind prevailed at the start, but it soon flat- 
tened out into a very gentle breeze, and the boats crawled 
over the long course. There were seven classes, compris- 
ing twenty-one starters. Dazzler won in the sloop class. 
Pinafore putting up a fairly good contest and Nixie, dis- 
tanced, withdrawing. The race of the 30ft. cats was close 
between Wanderer IV. and Elizabeth, the latter winning 
on corrected time by a trifle over a half minute. Wan- 
derer IV., however, is to be remeasured and the result 
may be changed. 
In the 2ift. class Trinket and Netor put up a close con- 
test, the former winning by im. 42s. On the first round 
there was only 5s. between the two. The old-fashioned 
cats also made a fairly close race, while in the 25ft. class 
Ina had a walkover, as did Edith in the dory class. The

Plymouth Y. C« 
Plymouth, Mass., Sept. i. — Editor Forest and Stream: 
The first race of the Plymouth Bay series of the Massa- 
chusetts Y. R. A was sailed Aug. 31 in a heavy N.E. gale, 
the severity of which may be judged from the fact that, 
although these were in the harbor many of the Cape cat 
class, which have claimed they were the more seaworthy 
and better heavy weather boats than the racing machines 
of some of the other classes, only one of that class (class 
D) entered the race. It rained the first part of the morn- 
ing but had nearly stopped before the hour for the race, 
although the wind did not appear to let up. The sporting 
blood of two of the skippers of the 22-footers furnished 
the race of the day and seldom will there be seen so close 
a race as there was between these two boats. Owing to 
their draft-they had to be sent down the channel and out 
a mile beyond the Gurnet to the whistling buoy and re- 
turn, a distance of 12 miles, the last mile to the outer 
mark exposing the boats to the full force of the gale and 
the heavy sea which was running. Pluckily keeping their 
boats to their course, the outer mark was reached and the 
return made, the time over this course for this class being 
only ih. 42m. 30S. for Nutmeg, while Rube was only 7s. 
behind her rival on crossing the line. Nutmeg getting the 
gun. The boats presented a very fine sight for those on 
shore, especially on the return as they rounded the point 
of the beach, as they set balloonjibs, and at the last, for 
the run to the judges’ boat, breaking out spinnakers. The 
wind by this time had moderated slightly and by the 
middle of the afternoon had cleared quite a little. 
There were only two entries in the i8ft. class, and one 
entry in the Cape, cat class, but as these boats had the in- 
side course fo sail over and being protected by the beach 
for a good part of the course, made very good weather of 
it. Through making the wrong turn by mistaking one of 
the marks, tlffe boats had to be sent over this course three 
times instead of twice in order to make the race. It was 
a trying dayTh which to race and. those skippers who so 
pluckily entered in spite of the brisk gale blowing at the 
time showed' good sportin^^ blood and certainly deserve 
much credit for their efforts. The summary : 
Class E, 22-footers.

Catolina Won Match Race. 
A SPECIAL match race between the New York Y. C. 30- 
footer Oriole and Mr. Pembroke Jones’ old champion 
Newport 30-footer Carolina for a cup offered by Vice- 
Commodore Henry Walters, of the New York Y. C., was 
sailed Sunday afternoon, Aug* 27, off Newport.. The race 
was sailed in a half gale, and while all other craft in the 
bay were reefed the two little sloops carried full sail in 
the heavy northeaster, but made hard work of it and were 
enveloped in spray most of the time. Carolina won by a 
margin of nearly 2m. 
The race was something of a society event in that the 
steam yacht Narada followed the boats- over the course 
with a large party of Newport guests. On Carolina with 
Mr. Jones were Messrs. Elisha Dyer, Jr., Harold Vander- 
bilt and Oliver Harriman and Miss Delano and Miss 
Sadie Jones wTre aboard Oriole with Mr. Delano. 
The start was in Brenton’s Cove and the course was up 
the bay about 5 miles to Gould Island and return, this 
giving a beat to the outer mark and a run home with 
spinnakers. The boats made an even and pretty start, 
but at the mark Carolina had secured a good lead and in- 
creased it a little on the run home. The summary:

Aug. 28 in a brisk N.E. breeze with a smooth sea. In the 
22ft. class, Medric II. got the start, followed by Nutmeg, Tyro, 
Medric I. and Rube, all breaking out spinnakers as they crossed 
the line. At the first mark Rube had gone up to second place, 
the others maintaining their relative positions. On the next 
leg a luffing match between Tyro, Rube and Medric II., gave 
the lead to Nutmeg, and she held it until after the first mark 
had been rounded the second time, when Tyro took the lead and 
held it to the finish, with Medric II second. Only two 18-footers 
entered, and Mirage II. withdrew after vainly chasing Hayseedi.
